The Whole Village Was Reborn, Except Me [The 1970s]

Song Shushu has no parents. She's a little orphan, abandoned in the wilderness and found by the village chief. She grew up eating meals provided by the villagers, who kindly helped raise her.

As far as she's concerned, everyone in the village is her mom and dad. They dote on her and love her, treating her just like their own child.

No, even better than their own!

On the first day of the month, she stays with the Zhang family. On the second, she visits the Li family. On the third, the Chen and Wang families argue over who gets to raise her.

Little Shushu sighs.

It's hard being so loved. Making sure everyone gets an equal share is no easy task.

One day, Song Shushu discovers an earth-shattering secret.

Everyone in the village has been reborn, except her!

Two-year-old Song Shushu, who hasn't yet been considered a potential threat to the adults' secret, curls up into a tiny ball under her blanket and secretly listens to the things they let slip.

She hears that in her previous life, she was the only person in the village to get into university, the village's one and only hope.

She hears that after graduating, she went back home to start a business and open a factory. She donated money to build roads and schools, doing everything she could to help the entire village become prosperous and live better lives.

She also hears that she did countless good deeds in her previous life, and ultimately died saving someone.

So all the villagers who have been reborn are grateful for what she did in her previous life.

To repay her, they're planning to raise her well together as a whole village.

There is a male lead. They are each other's first love, and it's a one-on-one romance.

The romance doesn't begin until the protagonist is an adult.
